"Report! An enemy ship has been detected with abnormal speed, rapidly advancing towards Krem V!"

"Intercept them immediately with long-range weapons!"

Brunson, who was closely monitoring the battlefield, immediately gave the order.

A golden laser beam shot out from a distance and struck the accelerating ship directly.

However, a layer of light appeared on the ship's surface, barely blocking the attack. This unassuming ship was actually equipped with a high-performance energy shield.

“That’s not right.” Bronson frowned.

"Continue firing!"

The relentless laser beams flickered the target's shield, making it appear precarious. Surprisingly, however, these attacks failed to penetrate it completely.

"Report! The target speed has exceeded the design limit. If this continues, it may disintegrate on its own."

"This is troublesome." Bronson's face was extremely grim.

The fact that the other party is willing to risk disintegration to accelerate things like this clearly indicates that they have ulterior motives.

However, in this situation, without a weapon like the Mitu Cannon that can explode directly at the target, it would be difficult to intercept them if they were to get there from this distance.

"Bronson."

Yingduo's voice came through the communication, interrupting his thoughts.

"We have just detected another company ship in the star system. We can request their assistance in intercepting it."

“That’s right!” Bronson’s eyes lit up.

"Immediately contact us via internal channels to request assistance in intercepting the attack!"

The communication was quickly and urgently sent out through the company's internal communication channels.

But at this moment, on the warship of the Business Consolidation Department, Commissioner Smith was staring at the captain beside him.

"Now that the guys in the market development department have taken over, there's no need for us to get involved anymore."

He said it in a calm tone.

"Ultimately, if it weren't for their special operations stirring up trouble everywhere, why would these bandits have traveled thousands of miles to this remote star system?"

He walked slowly to the communication station and pressed the call button:

"Dear colleagues, this is Smith, Specialist from the Business Consolidation Department. I'm sorry, our ships suffered heavy damage in the recent engagement and we are unable to provide assistance. However..."

Smith abruptly changed the subject.

"This difficulty is probably nothing to the renowned Special Operations Team. We will report your heroic actions truthfully."

The communication was abruptly and decisively cut off, and Bronson remained silent.

He never expected that, as a fellow member of the company, someone would choose to stand by and watch from the sidelines!

But the situation is urgent, and internal issues can be discussed later. The most pressing matter is to intercept that dangerous target.

"The only option is... a close-range jump."

Bronson gritted his teeth and gave the order.

Performing short-distance jumps so close to a planet could easily lead to catastrophic consequences if not handled carefully.

Once, a warship crashed into a planet due to a slight fluctuation in the imaginary environment, resulting in the destruction of the ship and the loss of all life on board.

"Sir, is this really necessary?"

The operator's voice was tense.

"Go ahead and do it; the Amber King will protect us."

Without much hesitation, Bronson said decisively.

"Yes!"

Ripples spread across the space like water, and the silhouette of a frigate gradually disappeared.

The next moment, the massive ship reappeared in near-Earth orbit around Krim V.

"Gotcha! Let's see where you can run now!"

Seeing the enemy ship so close at hand, Bronson suppressed the dizziness brought on by the warp and boldly clicked the fire button.

In an instant, countless energy cannons launched attacks at close range.

Inside the abnormal enemy ship, the pilot, listening to the system's frantic alarms, had a strange smile on his face.

He raised his hand and slammed it down on a bright red button on the control panel.

......

Chapter 87 The Sky Falls

The small warship was instantly reduced to fragments under the frigate's ferocious firepower.

But before it perished in space along with its crew, a tiny, meteorite-like black object suddenly detached from the wreckage.

"Target destroyed!"

During the monitoring by the company's frigate, fragments of the ship's hull were scattered, turning into wreckage of varying sizes.

But gradually, an unusual fragment came to the system's attention.

"Abnormal fragments detected."

Compared to the other debris that was slowing down or moving at a constant speed, one piece was accelerating continuously. The light produced by the high-speed friction of interstellar dust on its surface quickly attracted everyone's attention.

"what is that?"

Bronson's eyes widened, and he lunged in front of the monitor, his pupils shrinking the next moment.

"This isn't wreckage, stop it!"

The order was given to the weapon operator in a split second, and the light accelerated again, leaving a dazzling long tail in the dark space.

The laser suddenly streaked across the sky, but missed the target because it was moving too fast.

The light shone straight ahead, burning continuously, and its trajectory pointed directly to the surface of Krim V.

Looking at the predicted trajectory of the object on the screen in front of him, Bronson suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

His intuition told him that if the light in front of him were to fall onto the planet, it would have unimaginable consequences.

"What should we do... how exactly should we intercept it?!"

Bronson clenched his teeth instantly, his mind racing.

Application scenarios and solutions for various weapons flashed through my mind, but none of them could cope with the current situation.

"Oh right, that might come in handy!"

Suddenly, Bronson's eyes lit up as he remembered some experimental equipment that Su Shuyan had installed for them before.

One of the devices is called a high-power traction field, which is supposed to be used to clear waterways and disrupt enemy ships, but since it can't intercept the target, it will pull the other side over!

As the current commander on the frigate, he instantly activated the device's button.

In an instant, a blue light screen appeared on the ship's hull, a low-frequency roar reverberated in the cabin, and a ringing sound echoed all around.

The force field expanded rapidly forward, and the previously floating space debris and small meteorites began to shift unnaturally in the same direction.

"Power... turn it up to the maximum!"

The lights inside the frigate dimmed for a moment, and then a huge vortex seemed to appear in the dark universe, pulling in everything around it.

"It's in effect!"

As everyone watched the straight shooting star, under the tearing force of the complex force field, the light trail finally showed a slight curve.

"it works!"

Bronson's heart pounded in his throat, and excitement suddenly shone in his eyes. As the force field operated at full power, the deflection of the light trail became more and more obvious, finally drawing a near right angle and shooting off to the side.

The system's prediction of its trajectory changed instantly, and its trajectory no longer went straight to Krim V.

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Bronson's expression changed drastically upon seeing the new trajectory extension.

According to its current trajectory, the object will not fall onto the planet's surface, but ahead of its path stands a magnificent building suspended in space.

That was the symbol of Krim V technology and engineering, the "Sky City" space station connected by a space elevator.

"Damn it, can the power be increased even further?"

"We've reached our limit, sir," the operator replied, sweating profusely.

"Quickly, send a warning to their space station and tell them to escape!"

Bronson's face darkened, and he sighed softly.

That's how war is; the unexpected always precedes preparation.

The alarm message was rapidly transmitted through a high-power channel; however, the beam of light arrived even faster than the message.

Inside the Sky City command center, everyone was stunned as the beam of light that had been aimed at the planet suddenly turned towards the space station.

"What are you all standing there for? Intercept them immediately!"

Upon seeing this, the representative of the cooperative faction, Hua Si, roared, instantly waking the staff. Immediately, various machine guns and missiles began to intensively intercept the target.

Unfortunately, before that beam of light could even get close, these attacks were completely vaporized.

"Run! Run!"

Someone screamed in terror.

"It's too late."

The piercing feeling of impending death enveloped everyone's hearts. They watched the light that represented destruction approach, but they were powerless to stop it.

"...Is it over just like that?"

Hua Si murmured to himself, past memories flashing before his eyes like a revolving lantern.

But the next second, a chilling cold gripped his heart.

"not good!"
